It depicts a large, heavy metal stern for a tugboat, suspended from a crane by chains. The stern, which is likely cast iron, is in the foreground, while a man stands in the background, providing a sense of scale. The image showcases industrial activity and the craftsmanship of ship building, and is an important example of the era's industrial photography. It is currently located in the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam.
